Early life

Vikander was born on 3 October 1988 in Gothenburg to Maria Fahl [sv] (1951–2022),  a stage actress, and Svante Vikander, a psychiatrist. Her parents are from small villages in the north and south of Sweden, respectively. She is one-quarter Finnish;  her maternal aunts emigrated from Finland to Sweden to escape World War II. Alicia's parents separated when she was two months old, and she was raised mostly by her mother. She has five half-siblings on her father's side. Vikander has said that she had the best of both worlds while growing up, being her mother's only child and being surrounded by a large family when she visited her father's house every other week. 

Vikander began her acting career at the age of seven on stage and television. She trained in ballet at Svenska balletskolan i Göteborg (1998–2004) from the age of nine. At the age of 15, Vikander moved from Gothenburg, where she lived alone, to train at the Higher School of Ballet in Stockholm. She spent one summer training at the American Academy of Ballet in New York. 

At the age of 16, she almost quit school to fully commit to a television series she was working on with director Tomas Alfredson, which led her to realize her passion for acting. Her dance career was sidelined in her late teens due to injuries. She auditioned for drama school but was turned down twice.  At one point, Vikander was accepted into law school, but she never attended, instead following her dream of becoming an actress.

Personal life

In late 2014, she began a relationship with actor Michael Fassbender whom she met while filming The Light Between Oceans. They made their first public appearance as a couple at the 2016 Golden Globe Awards, where Vikander was nominated for her performances in Ex Machina and The Danish Girl, and Fassbender was nominated for Steve Jobs. They married in a private ceremony in Ibiza, Spain, on 14 October 2017. They have two sons, due to be born in 2021 and 2024 respectively.

In 2015 Vikander lived in North London, but since 2017 has lived in Lisbon, Portugal with her family.

Vikander holds Swedish and British dual citizenship.
